    A statement from Post Guild leadership on the Washington Post's decision to not endorse a presidential candidate
    Statement from The Washington Post Guild: We are deeply concerned that The Washington Post — an American news institution in the nation's capital — would make the decision to no longer endorse presidential candidates, especially a mere 11 days ahead of an immensely consequential election. The role of an Editorial Board is to do just this: to share opinions on the news impacting our society and culture and endorse candidates to help guide readers. 

The message from our chief executive, Will Lewis — not from the Editorial Board itself — makes us concerned that management interfered with the work of our members in Editorial. According to our own reporters and Guild members, an endorsement for Harris was already drafted, and the decision to not to publish was made by The Post’s owner, Jeff Bezos. We are already seeing cancellations from once loyal readers. This decision undercuts the work of our members at a time when we should be building our readers’ trust, not losing it.

    Workers @washingtonpost have been in contract negotiations with our bosses for 18 months. But the company is refusing to pay us what we’re worth or bargain in good faith. So on Dec. 7, we’re walking off the job for 24 hours.

    The Washington Post has determined our colleague Felicia Sonmez did not violate the company’s social media policy and has reinstated her.

    Our 24-hour strike has begun. For the first time in 50 years, @washingtonpost workers are walking off the job because our company is refusing to bargain in good faith and breaking the law.

    🚨 The Washington Post Guild has reached a tentative agreement with The Washington Post after 18 months of contract negotiations. This deal is the best contract Washington Post employees have seen in 50 years.
    A graphic reads: WE HAVE A TENTATIVE AGREEMENT in large red letters. The word "finally" and exclamation points are scribbled in the margins.

    #DearJeffBezos, we workers of The Washington Post have been bargaining for a year and have little to show for it because The Post won’t meet us halfway on much of anything. We love The Post. We know you do too. Our work has earned us more than what The Post is offering.

    Three hours until Washington Post workers start our 24-hour unfair labor practice strike at midnight Dec. 7. Don’t cross the picket line and don’t read @washingtonpost.

    Today, we came into WaPo’s so-called town hall with questions about recent layoffs and the future of the company. Our publisher dropped a bombshell on us by announcing more layoffs and then walking out, refusing to answer any of our questions.

    Our company tried to scare workers away from coming out today. Instead, hundreds of us been living it up for 10+ hours and have been joined by loyal readers, journalism legends, union leaders, security guards, custodial staff and a whole lotta dogs and babies. We love you all.
